A/C not so cold.
How much difference could a clogged condenser cause? Flies and dirt etc? Could it be only that which is the case of poor cooling?

Injectors
You can look for metal particles in the fuel, take fuel filter out etc, won't really log a code untill the pump starts struggling to provide enough pressure but even before then you would probably notice running issues.

Any idea what makes Skoda cards special? Any scripts you can run and use a normal card?

Arnold Clarke stickers ?
In over 20 years in the motor trade Arnold Clark vehicles have been the worst I've seen out of anything. I don't know why? Low miles, high miles. Rusty as hell and they just seem to break.

A 1961 Skoda Octavia Restoration-And a Slow One, At That!
Interesting, I have never saw an old Skoda. Oldest being the felicia 1.3 OHV I think. Rattly as hell.

What card have you got there? Is it for your make and model? I called VW today to get a card for a golf 7 and they said it's on back order as the new card comes out soon, so they can't sell one obviously as when the new one comes out customer might complain it's not .up to date.

Injectors
The high pressure pump itself could be breaking up allowing particles to enter the fuel system/injectors.

Injectors
Ideally you want to remove the tank and hoses and flush them but it's not realistic and also very time consuming, not to mention expensive. You will never remove everything without replacing all parts you just have to do the best you can.

DPF regens too often
Once it gets to around 50-60 it won't regen. But different cars have different amounts.

1.0 DSG Karoq Service at 5years old @ 30,000 miles
Can't really compare a karoq to a fabia but even just lowering the car slightly with some quality springs will make it feel more planted and responsive on the turns. If you go full shocker/springs you might ruin the ride completely. Can't really tell untill you have done the job. Be nice if you know anyone with a modified car that will let you drive it.

Injectors
The entire fuel system needs to be flushed and cleaned if changing injectors on these engines. Even the slightest amount of dirt/dust etc can ruin new parts. Just touching the injectors can cause them to become blocked. You may be able to remove them and get professionally cleaned and get away with it.

What would be a SMALLER but sporty replacement for my RS?
Ionic N 😉 ****es over literally anything available lol

The cost of ownership.
Sounds a bit pricey but I'm a mechanic so I suppose labour would be a big chunk of that which I don't take into account.

I'd go for a the non rsline fabia I think they are called sport monte Carlo or something, very similar looking and still a nippy engine. How much do you value comfort as they aren't going to be as good as the Octavia.

Check out mibhelper online and type in your versions/vin number. If you want to wait the new cards will be out soon then you won't have to update the system. Or buy one now then you will have to update that again soon.

1.0 TSI cold start noise
You will usually get a very small amount of dust but shouldn't really be able to see any fibres. Have you removed the top cover and inspected the belt?

STIFF/SNATCHY REV MANUAL GEAR
It's annoying though as some cars don't do it, so there is a problem but not bad enough for them to warrant any repairs.
